Grassroots organizing tends to be most available to big campaigns, but it's actually most useful to small ones. You can't win a presidential campaign without going on TV, but you can win a local election simply by organizing your community. NationBui...
Subjective conscious mind is an analog of what is called the real world. It is built up with a vocabulary or lexical field whose terms are all metaphors or analogs of behavior in the physical world…concrete metaphors increase enormously our powers ...
I think 'Caprica' is a little out of left field, which is kind of what I love about it. It's a little different. The first couple of episodes are really about wrapping your head around this world. I love 'Grey's Anatomy,' but I think it's the same ki...
[young Jenny's father is chasing her through the fields to beat her when she stops and hides] Young Jenny Curran: Dear God, make me a bird. So I could fly far. Far far away from here.
Capt. Oskar Steiger: [inside the German bunker] Sir, the Americans have taken Palermo! General Alfred Jodl: Damn! Messenger: [after pulling up to Monty's command post] Sir, Patton's taken Palermo! Field Marshal Sir Bernard Law Montgomery: Damn!
German officer: [on the Battle of Kasserine Pass] The Americans were under the command of British General Anderson. [smiles broadly] German officer: American soldiers and British generals - the worst of both worlds! Field Marshal Erwin Rommel: [curtl...
John Mason: Timeo Danaos et dona ferentes. Stanley Goodspeed: "I fear the Greeks even when they bring gifts." John Mason: Ah, an educated man. [Stanley gives a modest wave] John Mason: That, of course, rules out the possibility of you being a field a...
Sheryl Yoast: In Virginia, high school football is a way of life, it's bigger than Christmas day. My daddy coached in Alexandria, he worked so hard my momma left him, but I stayed with coach, he needed me on that field.
[in the Asteroid Field] Princess Leia: We're going to get pulverized if we stay out here much longer. Han Solo: I'm not going to argue with that. C-3PO: Pulverized?
[first lines] A Sailor: Can I help you, ma'am? Blanche DuBois: Why, they told me to take a streetcar named Desire and then transfer to one called Cemetery and ride six blocks and get off at Elysian Fields.
Private Henry Hook: [Throws Sergeant Maxfield across his shoulder] Twenty eight days field punishment! No pay! You know what he did? Sent my money to my Missus. [Slaps Sereant Maxfield's buttocks] Private Henry Hook: What did you do that for?
It's weird leaving London - you go through the fields between London and Essex and think, 'This is so beautiful - why am I living in a box?' Then there's that London thing where the centre of a roundabout is passed off as a green space. It's not a gr...
You can't train kids in a world where adults have no concept of what science literacy is. The adults are gonna squash the creativity that would manifest itself, because they're clueless about what it and why it matters. But science can always benefit...
People need to understand that the Lauryn Hill they were exposed to in the beginning was all that was allowed in that arena at the time. I had to step away for the sake of the machine. I was being way too compromised. I felt uncomfortable having to s...
I was walking around legally blind. Now I have 20-20 vision. I can't believe I spent so many years blurry, but I think that coincides with how I was feeling. Now I notice if people are watching me, but I also smile right back if someone waves, which ...
Yeah, I think it motivates you as people start to count you out. It doesn't make you play any harder, because every time you go out on the field you give 110 percent, but it does give you more of an edge mentally, knowing that you were in the same si...
Football is only once a week. NASCAR is once a week. Those sports are insanely popular. Horse racing is oversaturated. Unless tracks cut back to three days a week of full fields, a lot of people will really hurt down the road. Horse racing, to surviv...
It's not a field, I think, for people who need to have success every day: if you can't live with a nightly sort of disaster, you should get out. I wouldn't describe myself as lacking in confidence, but I would just say that the ghosts you chase you n...
Burton Mercer: This, gentlemen, is the elegant abode of one Elwood Blues. Officer Mount: Thanks for your help, Mr. Mercer. Burton Mercer: You know, I kind of like the Wrigley Field bit. Officer Mount: Yeah, *real* cute.
Lt. General Bittrich: Yes, thousands of paratroopers have landed in Nijmegen... right on top of Field Marshall Model General Ludwig: I'll bet they landed in his soup! Lt. General Bittrich: You'd like that, wouldn't you?
